WORSHIP
From Green to Gold — May 1, 2016
This past week both Fr. Isenberg and I were out for the diocese’s
annual convocation for priests. It is a yearly symposium on some pertinent
topic. We take turns being away. I attended the first session, which ran
from Monday afternoon through Wednesday midday, and Father attended
the second session, which was from Wednesday afternoon through Friday
midday. In recent years it has been held in Pennsylvania near Gettysburg.
The topic this year was “The Parish Priest and the New Evangelization.” I
can’t tell you much of anything about it as this column was written before
I left, other than the main speaker was Dr. Ralph Martin, who is an associate professor at the seminary in Detroit. This convocation is a kind of continuing education seminar, which we are required to attend to keep us
priests current on various subject areas that are of concern for us personally or with our work serving you. It is also a wonderful opportunity to
spend some time with fellow priests. Hopefully our absence did not too
inconvenience any of you.
There are a couple of other items I wanted to bring to your attention. One is that we are doing well with the Bishop’s Lenten Appeal. Although Lent has been over for five weeks, and we are nearing the end of
Easter, the diocese is still accepting pledges to this annual fundraising effort. As of last week we had nearly met our parish goal of $210,000. We
were about $2500 short of it. The diocese obviously wants us to meet the
goal and ideally surpass it. So we will see how that goes. The second item
to bring to your attention is two major events in our parish this week. The
first in this Tuesday evening when Bishop Loverde will be with us for confirmation. On May 3rd seventy-six mostly eighth graders will be confirmed,
receiving a special outpouring of the Holy Spirit as well as the seven gifts
He blesses us with, specifically knowledge, understanding, wisdom, fortitude, counsel, piety, and fear of the Lord. In addition they will receive the
twelve fruits of the Holy Spirit, which are a result of these gifts. The fruits
are charity, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, generosity, gentleness, fidelity, modesty, self-control, and chastity. No doubt these young
people need these gifts and fruits, particularly in our world today where it
is not easy to be a Christian. Please pray for them.
Later in the week, on Saturday, May 7th, our mostly second graders
will receive their First Holy Communion. This too is a great gift from
God—a gift of the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. Over my years as a
priest I have thoroughly enjoyed working with these seven and eight year
olds. Their faith, their innocence, their purity, their enthusiasm, their acceptance of Who Jesus is are all so beautiful and inspiring. We will want to
pray for these children as well this week as they prepare for this tremendous grace. As such this time of year is truly wonderful. The other reason
is with the lengthening of daylight, with the blooming of nature, that we
haven’t yet hit the oppressive humidity of the long summer days, we become in some way more aware of God’s presence among us. In addition
May is the month of Mary, our Blessed Mother. Throughout this month we
call to mind that it is Mary, our Mother in heaven, who constantly intercedes for us. She represents all that is good and pure and serves as a wonderful model of humility and faithfulness for us. Both our school and CCD
program will have a May Crowning ceremony, honoring our Lady, next
week. My hope and prayer are that each of us will honor her this month in
a special way. Of course we can do that every day, but may we especially
this month.
In Christ, Fr. Kleinmann
The Holy Father’s May
Prayer Intentions
Universal: Respect for Women. That in every country of the
world, women may be honored
and respected and that their essential contribution to society
may be highly esteemed.
Evangelization: Holy Rosary.
That families, communities, and
groups may pray the Holy Rosary for evangelization and
peace.

First Fridays for Religious Freedom
In late March, oral arguments were presented before the Supreme Court regarding the Little Sisters of the Poor and other religious groups and
institutions that will be forced to provide insurance coverage for contraception and abortifacients to their employees, contrary to their conscience and to the principle of religious freedom.
Bishop Loverde has invited all the members of
the diocese to join him in prayerful observance of
the First Fridays of May and June. Our participation should include: taking part in the Holy Mass,
some form of penance, and invoking the intercessory prayer of the Lord Jesus Whose Sacred
Heart continues to beat with love for the conversion of those still blind. A holy hour is likewise
encouraged on each of these First Fridays. First
Friday this month is May 6th.
Starting Friday, May 20th through Sunday, May
29th, St. Veronica is holding a food drive to benefit Catholic Charities and the neediest families it
serves through the St. Lucy Project. The following
items are requested:
 Canned chicken;
 Canned ham, beef or beef steak;

Steubenville Youth Conference—We are
excited to announce that thirteen of our high
school youth will be attending a youth conference on July 15th-17th at Franciscan University.
The cost per youth is $220.00. Stay tuned to

money for their registration costs. We are very
grateful for the prayerful and financial support
